Okay, let me tell you about this “sport.c” thing, whatever that means. Sounds fancy, like somethin’ them city folks made up.
You got yer cricket, you know, like with the bats and the ball? Never really understood it myself. All them fellas runnin’ around in white pajamas, seems silly. But folks like it, so who am I to judge?
- And then there’s that cyclin’. People pedalin’ them bikes like their lives depend on it. Up hills, down hills, wearin’ them tight pants. My old bones would never! But they say it’s good for you, gets your heart pumpin’. Just don’t see the point myself. Walkin’s good enough for me.
- Canoein’, now that’s somethin’ I can understand a little. Paddlin’ in a boat, peaceful like. Seen it on the telly once. Pretty scenery. But gettin’ wet? No thank you. I like my feet firmly on dry land.
What else we got? CrossFit? Sounds like a bunch of noise to me. Liftin’ weights, jumpin’ around, makin’ a racket. Why bother? Just workin’ hard on the farm is enough exercise for anybody. No need for fancy equipment or shoutin’.
Curlin’? Now that’s a strange one. Saw it durin’ them winter games on the telly. Folks sweepin’ the ice with brooms, pushin’ stones. What’s the point? Just makes a mess, if you ask me. But people get all excited about it, so there must be somethin’ to it.
And them cheerleaders? All that jumpin’ and shoutin’. Goodness gracious, makes my head spin. But the youngsters seem to like it, keeps ’em busy. Better than gettin’ into trouble, I suppose.
Now, someone told me about chess boxing. Yeah, you heard that right. Chess and boxing together. Can you believe it? Punchin’ each other, then sittin’ down to think. Makes no sense to me. Should stick to one or the other, I say. But I guess people like a bit of excitement.
And all them sports on the telly? Football, basketball, whatever. Men runnin’ after a ball, gettin’ all sweaty. Seems like a waste of time to me. But folks like to watch it, cheer for their teams. Guess it gives ’em somethin’ to do.
Then there’s the scores and news and all that. Who won what, who got hurt. Honestly, I don’t pay much attention. Too much goin’ on in my own life to worry about what others are doin’ with their balls and sticks and such.
But I guess that’s what this “sport.c” thing is all about. All different ways to move yer body, have a bit of fun. Even if it doesn’t make sense to an old woman like me. To each their own, I always say. As long as nobody gets hurt, that’s all that matters.
So there you have it. My thoughts on “sport.c”, whatever that is. Probably missed a few, but you get the idea. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens.
